Examining the airframe is not really possible or practical. Exceeding its limits can cause the airframe to suffer tiny deformations, cracks, or delaminations that would not really be visible to the naked eye. Essentially, if this beast were to be re-fit, it would be necessary to take it completely apart, check every…

I have it on good authority that Fieri is a much bigger douche (i.e. sexist, racist, homophobe) than Richman, so I’m fine with most of the insults going his way. Of course, Bourdain’s digs are so colorful, I’d gladly listen to them about Richman as well!

I thought I had all kinds of transmission issues! One day I randomly pulled on the shifter and was completely dumbfounded.

I don’t know how long they used it, but my 1997 Wrangler had a shifter that would lift out of the transmission if you pulled on it at all. Instead of a full ball in a bushing, the bottom of the shifter had a half ball with a spring on top. So, if you bang it into gear and aren’t careful, you’ll just lift the stick…

Cocaine is a hell of a drug...

On that note, I’m going to NZ to start a new public service...

My Jalopy! Only I know what to do when the clutch pedal doesn’t return or at what speed and angle the power steering goes out or how to deal with the window that doesn’t work and is currently held up by a chunk of tire I picked up on the side of the highway... Also, I’d hate for somebody else to get stuck in the…

To this day, I regularly answer, “Time to unpimp das Auto!” when somebody asks for the time.

Yup, I do almost every time. Sometimes I stop to take a quick picture (see below).

In The New 52 revamp Batwoman happens to like women. Of course, there’s pretty much zero chance of getting a comic book to draw anything other than male-oriented sexpot characters. Maybe they’ll make a movie or TV show that gives her a more realistic look!

You’re right, he/she should have reported them regardless of the tip!

Every time I hear somebody make that argument, this is the mental image I get:

Thanks for pointing this out. I was already judging but hadn’t truly thought of it as a mental illness. As a sufferer of my own mental illnesses and a person who has friends who also suffer, I fully understand how quickly people judge others incorrectly. I guess fearing something so much that you won’t go somewhere…

I just hope you don’t have a lot of black furniture! Trust me, it’s bad...

It’s usually listed as “eggs scandinave” and is the perfect match of rich, delicious eggs and hollandaise balanced out by some capers (sometimes) and briny smoked salmon. Boy, that sure was some delicious yogurt I had for breakfast...

From Tim Minchin’s beat poem Storm:

You think that's bad! Check out the entire aisle of homeopathic "remedies" that contain not even a single molecule of their "active ingredients" and sell for tens of dollars!!

I use “brotruck” regularly but have noticed one slight issue with the term: it sounds almost exactly like “pro-truck.” This leads to a lot of “why are you calling that chromed out douche-mobile a pro truck?” or “why are you hating on pro trucks, those things are badass?!”

I believe the mother is related to Clayton Bigsby...
